Gerbil Update
The gerbils are really getting used to thier new home in room 248. They have a great time with all the children and they really enjoy going home with them on the weekends. I want to thank you for allowing them into your homes. All the children will have an opportunity to take them for a weekend. If you do not want to take them home that is not a problem. So far we have had enough supplies for them however, if you would like to donate any of the following for future needs that would be fantastic!
- Bedding for their cage
- food
-
chew toys

Meet your teacher
Hello new friends! I am so excited to meet each of you. My name is Whitney Asip, and I am starting my second year here at Nicholson. I have been teaching for five years. I previously taught fourth and EIP at Powers Ferry Elementary. Fourth grade is my favorite grade. I love it! I am married to my husband Brent, and we have two beautiful girls named Alexis and Alivia. This year they will attend our neighboring school, Keheley. I love spending time with my family, and since Nicholson is so close I am able to. I also enjoy reading and snowboarding. I can't wait to get to know you. See you soon!
Check out my pics from this summer below!!

Reminders
- Monday Mail folders will go home every Monday. They will contain graded papers and school information. There is a signature sheet inside. The folder should be emptied, signed, and returned on Tuesday
- Agendas will go home everyday. The children will write their homework assignments and any reminders in them. They do not need to be signed nightly, however I do require them to be signed on Thursdays. I will check for a signature on Friday.
- School starts at 7:50 please be sure to get to school on time. Please remember the children have work to complete in the morning before school. If you are a car rider it would be beneficial to be in the class by 7:40 in order to complete the work.
